:58:02
You did. American soldiers and
civilians are dead because of it.

:58:08
- I never ordered any...
- Don't you play that game with me!

:58:11
Don't you dishonour their memories
by pretending you didn't know!

:58:15
- How dare you lecture...
- How dare you, sir?!

:58:20
How dare you come here
and bark at me like a junkyard dog!

:58:24
I am the President
of the United States!

:58:30
lt gives me no pleasure
to do it, sir.

:58:34
As acting Deputy Director
of lntelligence it is my duty -

:58:37
- to report this matter
to the Senate Oversight Committee.

:58:46
- You're not going to do that.
- I'm not?

:58:54
You've got yourself
a chip in the big game now.

:58:58
You're going to save that for a time
when your own ass is on the line.

:59:03
And then you're going to pull it out.
:59:07
And I'm going to cash it in for you.
Right?

:59:14
I don't think I have anything more
to say to you, sir.

:59:18
The country can't afford another
scandal, Jack. To protect itseIf -

:59:23
- it won't allow another deception
that goes all the way to the top.

:59:29
You'll take the blame. Cutter
and Ritter will take some too, -

:59:33
- but it will only amount to
a slap on the wrist.

:59:36
Then 20,000 dollars an hour
on the lecture circuit.

:59:42
The rest of the blame
will fall on Greer.

:59:46
Oh yeah, you'll take him
down with you.

:59:49
You'll destroy his reputation.
:59:51
But that's as far as it will go.
The old Potomac two-step, Jack.
